I, for one, think that the navy/navy/navy combo looks hella cool, and it fits for a team called the “Nightriders”. They could definitely break that out for select night games.

These uniforms in general are amazing. Y'all are doing an absolutely great job!

Well that's why we're allowing several combinations. I designed the navy pants with the thought in mind that they would only serve you break up the all yellow look on the alt, and that similar to the Rams, the home and away would only be matched with yellow pants. But if someone desires an all navy look it's possible.

Next up, the Philadelphia Brawlers. The Brawlers that feature the controversial Brawlin' Ben logo. A patriotic look that features a flying boxing glove logo on a white helmet. Gritty wins with this design at 82.1% of the vote. Tomorrow we head north, to the border with the Buffalo Bolts.

Boxing glove helmet is a charming way to go! Worry about what it would look like on TV. Hopefully wouldn’t turn into a blob for the viewer.

Boston: Although I wasn't sold on the "Nightriders" name at first, their logo and uniforms have changed my opinion of them, and they're now one of my favorite designs so far

Philly: I like the boxing glove on the helmet rather than Brawlin' Ben. I also like the mix between a traditional and a more modern design, with the helmet and pant stripes coming from a traditional standpoint and the stars on the chest and Brawlin' Ben on the sleeves. Add this to the list of great looks that I can't decide which is my favorite.

Uniform Thoughts: AltFL /North Edition

Boston: This is the kind of team you’d expect to have a long and storied history by looking at their uniforms. Plus, there are some great combos you can get out of them. I like it. 9/10

Philadelphia: Chest Stars, Boxing Ben Franklin, and a Boxing Glove on a helmet? This uniform set truly blurs the line between traditional and modern. Way to go, Gritty. 7/10

Boston Nightriders: This is such an awesome set! Won't lie and say I was thrilled with the team name at first, but the logo gave me some hope for this team. This jersey cements what may be the biggest turnaround I've ever done for an Atl League team. I genuinely can't find anything wrong with this uniform set! Course, it helps that this team now reminds me a bit of the Michigan Wolverines (Go Blue!). Darknes might want to hope he gets a higher pick than me , lmao!

Philadelphia Brawlers: Definitely glad to see the boxing glove as the helmet logo instead of Brawlin' Ben (though I don't care for the logo, I will say he'll make an excellent mascot!) for the home and away set, as it's much simpler and therefore better in my opinion. This is a well designed uniform set, particularly the away jersey. As asinine as it is for me as an Eagles fan to say it, I wouldn't mind seeing the Brawlers go the Cowboys route and wear white all the time. While I wouldn't say my opinions on this team had quite the turnaround that the Nightriders had, I do like this team's overall identity quite a bit more now that we have the complete uniform set!

Look I'm just hoping I can get the 'Riders to go with my Rovers. Not gonna lie, I already have a stadium idea all set for the Riders.

The Buffalo Bolts complete our third day of 'Blue' for the North Division. While they are all blue we have three distinctive identities. DireBear was the winning designer here...the design won with 55% of the vote. I personally am a fan of the storm trooper look. A quick note: the font used on the uniforms does not match the submission. I'll try to get it from DireBear and update it when we get the chance...didn't want to give away the surprise! Tomorrow we go to see the Emperors.
